LOUISE ALEMAN CADOUX
Is a sculptor and painter based in Bridgeport, CT
I started out as a painter but became a 3D artist because of my curiosity of what is inside. What hides behind a surface? What goes on in our minds? How does a living being work? My pieces express a state of mind, an emotion, or a thought.
I work mainly in wire, but also in clay, concrete, wood, textile, and paper. I start with a drawing on paper. I then make a wire drawing or a vessel form. Layers and interiors are added in many media as the story unfolds.
My aim is lightness, movement, and texture. Shadows play a major part in the finished piece.
What goes on inside is endlessly fascinating and bizarre to me.
